Unable to string two passes together so far.

[ally_uk]

Anyone got a working stream? 

 

Cheers lads 

[trousers]

My 0-0 prediction looking sound so far

[Saint_clark]

Armstrong's passing and link up is piss poor.

[SNSUN]

Neither side clicking yet. Hoping we have more talent on show but need to settle into this more.

The only other working one I can find has Spanish commentary...

Please Mr. Martin sir, can we go back to the more direct faster football that we played in the first half Vs Leeds?

[Saint_clark]

Growing into it. We'll score in the next 10 minutes.

[JohnS]

Disappointing start - 2nd best to everything so far - go sidewards & backwards too much again 

[OttawaSaint]

Bit more composure and we'd have scored there!

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Nice to see our opponents scramble around at the back for a change.

[OttawaSaint]

Stu has been absolutely gash so far!

[adrian lord]

We are still a cardiologist’s nightmare at the back 

[Saint NL]

Stu Armstrong having a mare so far....

[saintant]

Stu Armstrong far too casual so far.

[Sheaf Saint]

What on earth wass Stu attempting there?

[Saint86]

Sulemana's tracking at left back is non existent. Not a great combo with manning defensively!!

[mcbendy]

Has been good but Spanish commentary: https://hdfungames.xyz/hd/ch6.php

[Saint Fan CaM]

Wow - what have they been doing in training to seemingly drill out any decent fast attacking play?!

[adrian lord]

Sulemana is really classy 

[Saint Matty 76]

Sulemana is so frustrating cause he looks like he can’t be fucked but any time he actually tried he’s got any defender in the league on toast.

[Saint NL]

Sulemana is causing real issues 

[OttawaSaint]

Sulemana mom so far.

[SNSUN]

Sulemana so classy but does need to do more defensively. 

[Sheaf Saint]

Well if anyone is going to create anything it's Kamaldeen. That burst of pace he has will terrify defenders in this league.

[Holmes_and_Watson]

oooooh Sulemana. Just needed it palmed out for a touch in.

Nice Saints passing move there. More of that please.

[ButtikonSaint]

Am a bit confused, why are we playing Charly as a 9, our 9 as a 7 and our 10 on the bench?

[OttawaSaint]

Players a bit thick really. Just play like 1st half vs Leeds not 2nd half...

[SNSUN]

Phew nice flick from them.

[saintant]

We've reverted to type so far.

[Saint86]

Well played KWP - recovery wise anyway.

Edited 3 October, 2023 by Saint86

[Saint NL]

Well in kwp

[saintant]

Very little movement off the ball from us.

[SNSUN]

I know luck shouldn't come into it but the ball is falling their way so far. Our midfield getting a bit overrun.

 

Ooh Kamaldeen. Think Charly could have had a shot there.

[Sheaf Saint]

Stoke seeing more of it but their quality upfront is terrible.

[saintant]

Play out longer and we create a chance.

[adrian lord]

Great move, but Sulemana balloons it

[Lighthouse]

Everyone moaning about Sully defensively but that’s a great clearance, got a good 50 yards on it.

I think we need to drop Stu Armstrong and play Charles in the middle with Downes on the left hand side to drop in and cover for Manning. 
 

[Saint NL]

Good build up, but a horrific shot by Sulemana.

[Saint86]

Baz goes a bit longer and we get a good chance... on the back of Martin implying pre match that the players ignored his instructions to do that vs leeds 😕

He had loads of time to take 1 or 2 touches to steady himself

[Turkish]

Stop calling him Bazanu FFS

[Saint Matty 76]

Manning really is a bit shite

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Nice move. Stu was looking to get onto that, had the pass to him just been a little different.

[saintant]

Charlie needs to be getting further forward.

[Saint NL]

Close from AArmstrong.

 

Manning scares the shit outta me

[adrian lord]

Manning need to look lively
